Historical evolution

Gulou District has a long history and is one of the earliest developed areas in the central urban area of Nanjing. There were many primitive villages five or six thousand years ago.

During the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, the area of Gulou Xiaguan first belonged to the state of Wu and then to the state of Yue. Since the Zhou Dynasty, all or part of the area has belonged to jinlingyi, Jiangcheng County, Xiangwu County, moling County, Jianye County, Jiankang County, Langya County, Jiangning County, Jiangzhou County, Jinling County, Shangyuan county and Jiangning County.

Thirty six years ago (333 BC), Xiong Shang, king of Chu Wei, defeated the Yue army and set up Jinling town in shitoushan. This was the first administrative construction in Gulou District and the beginning of Nanjing city.

In the 37th year of Yingzheng reign of the first emperor of Qin Dynasty (210 BC), the first emperor visited the East and passed through Jinling. Jinling was changed into moling county and Jiangcheng County was added.

In 211, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty moved moling from Jingkou to Jianye the next year. Jin Dynasty changed Jianye to moling, Jianye and Jiankang, where the southern dynasties all lived.

In Sui and Tang Dynasties, Jiankang's political status was reduced from county to state, and then to county. From 917 to the end of Qing Dynasty, Jiangning County and Shangyuan county have been under the jurisdiction of the district.

In the early Ming Dynasty, Nanjing city wall was built. The main part of the area was enclosed in the inner city, and the rest was also in the outer outline. In the first year of Hongwu (1368), a taxation agency was set up in Longjiang, which was called longjiangguan (near xianyuxiang today). Xiaguan got its name from the Ming Dynasty. In the fourth year of Xuande (1429), shangxinheguan was set up in shangxinhe to collect ship tax. Because it is located in the upstream and downstream, shangxinheguan is commonly known as Shangguan and longjiangguan as Xiaguan.

In March of 1933, Gulou District was established, and Nanjing was divided into eight administrative districts. Gulou was the Sixth District, which was called the Sixth District of Nanjing. Xiaguan was the seventh district, which was called the seventh district of Nanjing. It was the beginning of the construction of Gulou District. At that time, the area under its jurisdiction, south of Hankou Road and west of Caochangmen, was not in the present district.

In December 1937, after the Japanese invaders occupied Nanjing, the area was under the jurisdiction of the Japanese puppets, belonging to the fourth and fifth districts. During the period of the puppet reform government, the southern boundary of Gulou District was pushed to Hanzhong Road.

In 1938, the puppet Nanjing autonomous Committee established Xiaguan as the Fifth District.

In April of 1942, the city of Nanjing special municipality was divided into six districts, with Beiji Pavilion, Huaqiao road and Qingliang mountain as the line, along the walls of Dinghuaimen, yijiangmen, jinchuanmen and Xuanwumen, and was designated as the "experimental area of urban autonomy" (the part of the current district).

In 1945, after the victory of the Anti Japanese War, the former sixth and seventh districts were restored and became the main body of the present district. Xuanwu Lake area is divided into Gulou District, and the scope of Gulou District is expanded. The national government restored the establishment of Nanjing municipal government, and the Fifth District (Xiaguan District) was renamed the seventh district.

Nanjing was liberated on April 23, 1949, and the people's Government of the seventh district (Xiaguan) was established on June 2.

In March 1967, Xiaguan District was renamed Dongfanghong District, and Gulou District was renamed Yan'an district.

On November 12, 1973, Yan'an District Revolutionary Committee and Dongfanghong District Revolutionary Committee were renamed Gulou District Revolutionary Committee and Xiaguan District revolutionary committee respectively.

In September and October 1980, the Revolutionary Committee of Xiaguan District and the Revolutionary Committee of Gulou District were abolished successively, and the people's Government of Xiaguan District and the people's Government of Gulou District were established accordingly.
